The construction of a new golf pavilion and celebrity restaurant add to the programme along with improvements to the main building, creating a new entrance, reception area, and kitchen space. The revamped resort will also benefit from upgrades to the existing orangery, gastro pub at the golf club, meeting rooms and office space.
Gareth Russell, Russell WBHO Managing Director, said: “Fairmont Cheshire The Mere Golf Resort & Spa will be one of the most exclusive hotel, golf and spa destinations in the North of England, so we are proud to add this extremely prestigious scheme to our portfolio.
“Securing the latest phase is a fantastic result and a testament to the strength of our working relationship with Select Group. From the outset, we have worked collaboratively to realise the client’s vision, creating the highest quality facilities that reflect the world-leading luxury Fairmont brand.”
Israr Liaqat, Group CEO for Select Group, added: “Russell WBHO’s expertise in the hotel and leisure sector resonates with the detail required to deliver our vision for this project. We are confident that the team will continue to meet our aspirations and look forward to continuing this journey with Russell WBHO to deliver a resort that will set a new standard for luxury hospitality in the region.”
Once complete, the project will see Fairmont Cheshire at The Mere Golf Resort & Spa become Accor’s fourth Fairmont branded property in the UK, joining Fairmont Windsor Park, Fairmont St Andrews and The Savoy, a Fairmont Managed Hotel.
